Congrats on the Readers Union edition of INSIDE THE FORTIES. Good-oh! as xxxxx schoolgirls said in the 40* s. Glad to hear you are working on the stories and I hope you will find a publisher. Jack B will tell,x you about the reading last Sunday. He was a great help to me there, looking after Herta and another woman I know: getting drinks for them,chatting etc. He also said some very nice things about Captain Horatio Fox,C.B,E. Michael Hamburger brought along some Berlin friends - they came first for drinks to No.27. A very nice fellow, Hamburger. Poor chap,his son’s a drop-out and has been in trouble with the police over drugs (shades of Roy McFadden and his son). Howard Constable - bad joke - is coming to talk about OUTPOSTS to the Group on 20th (Wednes next). Would you be willing to come some time to talk about the Forties ? Perhaps in August ? i asked Matthew Sweeney today if this wd interest him and he said yes;very definitely - the 25 yr olds are not prejudiced a bit against the 40*s and sane o£ them wonder what it was like to be a poet during the last War. If not in August,what about later on ? You could spend the night here or,more comfortably perhaps with Jack. As I run these meetings at a slight loss I couldn’t offer a fee... sorry. has told Text Saturday, August 20, 2016 - 11:16
